I want to ask a question, and hope someone has a good idea. If you had a horse(s) , with special needs, how would you go about finding them a good home. I am asking about a particular pair of animals. Now, before any flaming, or anything that goes that way, please remember, this is not a dire needs situation, I am just looking for Ideas.
I have two horses, both blind, one from a eye condition and the other from a seizure. I have had them for years. One is a 1989 stallion and the mare is a late 80's model also. I have had them since early 90's. One went mostly blind in about 1996 and the other has gotten progressively worse since the late nineties. the stallion is actually a grand champion that was shown in the early 90's.
I am looking for a loving permanent home, where they are the only horses , or at least are the only ones ever to be in a field together. This has got to be a permanent situation. I have gotten a foal out of this mare every year, but would just as soon her never bred again. She frets so bad when the foal is weaned. Now, if you want to flame me for giving them away, please dont. I have thought long and hard about this. If i can find a permanent home for them, I will do so, if not, they can stay here. If someone has any ideas, please pm me. If you want to flame me, skip it, I am just considering their best interests. They are both extremely docile and well bred.
